Reviews

The unit was nice, but the owners should step it up a bit. It felt like the place was outfitted at a garage sale. Nothing matched, and everything was purchased as cheaply as possible. The new kitchen is fine but the all the utensils are dated, and not even non-stick. Spend a few hundred dollars to bring the pot, pans, flatware, dishes, etc into the 2010's. The 2 baths were fine, but the towels were clearly hand-me-downs from their primary residence and none of them matched. $100 at spent Macy's Home sale this weekend would help. Same thing with the bedding, When were those pillow cases made? 1970? We've stayed at Ekahi and Ekolu many times, and this unit showed the least pride of ownership we've seen. 48C is not on our list of places to return to.

Comment by Owner/Manager:

I appreciate the guest comments as it appears the condo needs some cosmetic upgrading. We will go to the condo and look at the linens, bedding and kitchenware and replace what is needed. I thought that the pots and pans were in good condition when we last checked in the fall. Since the condo is in Wailea Ekahi and in the high rent district, these types of items should be matching and of high quality. It is not a large expense for the owner to purchase these items and update the condo. Our housekeepers should be advising us when these types of things need replacement so we will remind them.

Upon arriving, I thought we may have had the wrong unit since it said we would have a peek a boo view of the ocean. Instead, the picture we saw on the website was from our neighboring unit and we couldn't see the ocean at all. When we started to explore the unit, we opened the closet and found a 6 in. centipede on the ground. After realizing it was dead, we calmed down and my dad threw it outside. (We knew they were dangerous, but the locals told us that it was unlikely to see one and that it was indeed not good it was in our unit) At night we went to open up the couch to lay down and once it was set up, my mom laid down (who has had numerous back surgeries) and fell right through the couch bed. After investigation, the entire one end of the bed was ripped and there was no possible way we could fix it. My mom is not a big lady either. We were willing to deal with these issues because it was Hawaii and vacation. We then realized we were almost out of toilet paper and I requested we get some more. They told me that only two rolls were included and we had to purchase the rest. This threw us over the edge as we had been more than accomadating with the unit so far. We actually had to complain about $5 worth of toilet paper to get it. We were not even provided with 2 full rolls upon arrival and felt that since we were paying hundreds of dollars per night that we were at least entitled to that. After all of this, we woke up to several cockroaches in our sink. We found out later that they had just sprayed high dosages of chemicals on all of the flowers to kill off the bugs around the unit (not just this unit, but the entire complex). This was disappointing to me as we were coming on vacation to get rid of our worries that were associated with my having cancer a few years before, so being surrounded by the things that made me sick in the first place was aggravating. I do want to say that the management company was quick to respond and did provide us with an air mattress in place of the couch, which was nice of them, but our overall experience left something to be desired. The grounds are beautiful, and the walk to the beach was not bad at all, but the unit itself was not stellar. Each unit is different though since they are privately owned, so many of the other units looked outstanding. Maybe because I designed resorts for a living I am a little picky, but I feel like we were duped.

Comment by Owner/Manager:

We advertise unit 48C as a garden view condo overlooking the gulch with no mention of an ocean view at all. The sofa problem should have been reported to our staff by prior guests or our cleaning staff. Wendi from our office delivered a double size air mattress the following evening. Housekeeping should have left a sufficient amount of toilet paper. I brought down six rolls that afternoon. Exterior bug spraying is non-toxic and undoubtedly drove the insects back into the condo. The condo is overall in good condition with a brand new remodeled kitchen. The sofa should have been in better condition which is our fault as managing agents. I feel that the condo was represented accurately by our company and that we responded to the guest's issues promptly.
